Renee used to want to have a toyhouse(although very strongly though) after playing with her cousin's, but each time, after I've explained to her about it being 'jor deng'(taking up space) especially when she's got a kitchen set and so many toys, she seemed to drop the idea. I had thought that she no longer wanted it, especially when she hadn't really displayed her keen-ness when we saw the sets at Compass Point last week. She didn't even show that she wanted one when we were there with Li a few days ago, looking at the items in her X'mas gifts list.
This morning, as promised, we took her to breakfast at Mc's and whilst we were wrapping up her small 'gifts of appreciation'(which Renee's paid abt S$25 for) back home, Papa suddenly asked me what was it that Renee had wanted(probably 'cos he overheard ne talking about getting him a x'mas gift, :D) but I couldn't really recall any since most of what she wanted will be 'taken care of' by her aunts and cousins.
Out of ideas, I asked her directly and she replied that she couldn't think of any as well but shortly, she mentioned the beads set I've suggested to her earlier. Then, when I said that it might be very abit troublesome to pack the beads up when we move and there's a smaller set by Barbie, she asked for my mobile to show Papa the pics I've taken, lolz.
Having gone out so early this morning, we were all very tired and so I took a nap after all the wrapping work's done. Then, after lunch, Papa took a short nap and I took another, geez, hahaha. Thereafter, we headed out again to get my item for the gift exchange. Surprisingly, the mall hadn't seemed as crowded as last year. Maybe it's because we were there rather late, around 4:30pm and it being situated around the neighbourhood, most might have gone back home for dinner/gatherings(many cars were exiting the carpark when we arrived). That was however good for us as it meant that we need not have to squeeze with a big crowd, :).
At KP, Papa took Renee to the toys section whilst I go look for my stuffs but as I walked away, I heard him telling her something like "Or you want these? Think it's better than the beads set, less messy" and when I returned to where they were, I saw Papa choosing a set of ToyHouse and she's grinning with joy, lolz...
For her aunts
